Wiesbaden dusts
The exhibition "Wiesbadener Stäube" with works by Line Krom will open on November 13 at 7 pm in the Bellevue Hall. It will be on display there until January 4, 2026.
Line Krom's art focuses on the cultural and environmental significance of dust. As part of her scholarship, she is researching the city of Wiesbaden by collecting dust samples from various locations: in public spaces, cultural institutions, historical buildings, business establishments and sports facilities. These dust samples serve as microscopic documents of urban life. They reflect the environmental conditions and activities of the inhabitants.
The exhibition presents dust paintings that were created from the collected dust and depict the individual stories and environmental aspects of the respective locations. This is complemented by a video documentary that illustrates the process of dust collection and the environmental background to the project. Here, dust becomes a symbol of transience and the complex ecological and social dynamics of urban spaces.
